About Zell am Ziller

Often overlooked in favour of the Arlberg to the west, Zell am Ziller is a friendly, family-oriented resort with year-round appeal. And, at under an hour’s transfer time from Innsbruck airport, you’re guaranteed maximum days on her expansive slopes.

Our Zell am Ziller chalets are scattered across the head of the Zillertal Arena, a picturesque valley that offers over 620 kilometres of skiing. Most pistes sit at altitudes of 1,500 metres or higher, with a few above 2,500 metres, making the area one of Austria’s most snow-sure. A wealth of high-speed lifts mean you can easily and seamlessly cover extensive ground over even a short stay.

Awash with Austria’s legendary hospitality and cosy charm, this little enclave has a quiet style that’s all its own. Our curated selection of Zell am Ziller chalets are perfect for families of every persuasion and taste.

Tobogganing: Explore the area at your own leisure on your sledge. There are some marked out routes to try and after the pistes are closed find yourself a small hill to race down

Snow Tubing: New to the area, the specially built track will certainly make you whizz down to the bottom. You’ll be given your snowtube and let lose! A fantastic way to burn off that last bit of energy from the day

Arena Coaster: The first tobogganing run in the Zillertal Valley. With the speed you will pick up you really have a smile all over your face!

Cross Country Skiing: The well maintained routes and the easy to find forest paths will make this a great activity for those who don’t ski or for those who want to burn their muscles a little bit more

Winter Hiking: You can either go with a guide or pick up a map from tourist information. But the well signposted routes will mean that you get to see some of the best views the area has to offer

Ice Skating: In the centre of the resort there is the place where you can perfect your skate and maybe catch an ice hockey match throughout your stay

Horse-drawn Sleigh: Wrapped in warm blankets it is one of the more romantic way to see the sights the resort has to offer

Paragliding: With a qualified instructor you’ll be soaring down off the mountains and over the resort with such elegant ease you will forget about those achy legs from skiing

Tips in restaurants are usually added on at 10/15 % of the bill. However, it is often a subject of controversy whether this amount actually goes to the waiter or not, therefore it is your choice whether to tip more.
